Grants and Contributions
About this information
In June 2016, as part of the Open Government Action Plan, the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat (TBS) committed to increasing the transparency and usefulness of grants and contribution data and subsequently launched the Guidelines on the Reporting of Grants and Contributions Awards, effective April 1, 2018.
The rules and principles governing government grants and contributions are outlined in the Treasury Board Policy on Transfer Payments. Transfer payments are transfers of money, goods, services or assets made from an appropriation to individuals, organizations or other levels of government, without the federal government directly receiving goods or services in return, but which may require the recipient to provide a report or other information subsequent to receiving payment. These expenditures are reported in the Public Accounts of Canada. The major types of transfer payments are grants, contributions and \'other transfer payments\'.
Included in this category, but not to be reported under proactive disclosure of awards, are (1) transfers to other levels of government such as Equalization payments as well as Canada Health and Social Transfer payments. (2) Grants and contributions reallocated or otherwise redistributed by the recipient to third parties; and (3) information that would normally be withheld under the Access to Information Act and the Privacy Act.

Ground Effects has rapidly developed a chemical free decontamination process using its patented electrokinetic platform in conjunction with ozone emitted into enclosed, unoccupied spaces to deactivate SARS-CoV-2. The Sanozone deactivates pathogens on every surface in the decontamination zone, while providing peace of mind to staff, customers and business owners that their space is sanitized to the highest possible level.
The Sanozone system emits high concentration ozone into an enclosed, unoccupied space for a short residence time. As ozone fills the air it envelops and decontaminates all surfaces, including complex objects such as stretchers, office supplies and medical equipment. Sanozone’s rapid ozone destruction components quickly and effectively remove ozone following the treatment cycle, making the space safe for reentry. The Sanozone system requires no chemicals and leaves no residue. The entire process takes approximately one hour, depending on square footage.
The Sanozone works as both a daily decontamination unit and for emergency response. Businesses with a COVID-19 positive case can quickly resume operations following the deployment of the Sanozone system to rid the space of coronavirus. Current manual cleaning methods use harsh and costly chemicals and expose staff to pathogens. These methods can take several days to thoroughly and completely decontaminate a space, disrupting business during that time. Public transportation systems, ambulances, warehouses and schools can employ the Sanozone system for daily decontamination to reduce the spread of SARS-CoV-2, as well as reducing the spread of other transmissible disease.
